Saccharine is the new body-horror film from writer and director Natalie Erika James (Relic, Apartment 7A), exploring body image and diet culture through a chilling psychological thriller.

Thanks to our friends over at Maslow Entertainment, we have five double passes to give away to this new horror film.

The film stars Midori Francis (Grey’s Anatomy, The Sex Lives of College Girls, Dash & Lily), Danielle Macdonald (Dumplin’, The Last Anniversary) and Madeleine Madden (The Wheel of Time, Strife).

When first-year medical student Hana becomes fixated on weight loss after reuniting with a
dramatically transformed friend, she’s drawn into a disturbing world of body image
obsession. Encouraged by her crush, fitness influencer Alanya, to join an intense body
transformation program. Hana takes the diet pills her old friend gave her – and they really
start to work straight away, but she’s unable to afford the high cost, so she tests the contents
of the pills —only to discover they contain human ashes. Desperate for more, she secretly
harvests bones from a cadaver in her anatomy class. As Hana begins shedding weight, she
is haunted by the ghost of the person she’s consuming. At first a spectral curiosity, then a
terrifying, growing presence with a ravenous hunger that begins to consume her life. With
her grip on reality slipping and the ghost gaining power, Hana must find a way to break free
before she loses control entirely.
